Ábranse paso entre las telarañas (decorativas) y sírvanse un bloody mary con unas galletitas en forma de fantasma, porque es hora de celebrar Halloween. En esta oportunidad, les traemos una edición de Historia de Historietas que habla, en su mayoría, sobre los albores de Vertigo, el ya mítico sello de DC Comics para historietas "maduras", con un gran sesgo hacia el horror y lo sobrenatural. Sepan cual editorial casi crea Vertigo ante de DC, como volvió el Spectre luego del ostracismo post Golden Age, que hicieron dos guionistas cuando les prohibieron usar a John Constantine en sus comics, como Robert Kirkman convenció a Image de publicar The Walking Dead, qué colección de DC podría haber escrito Alan Moore en vez de Swamp Thing, y más. Con música de Sticky Fingers, y Judas Priest. Próximo programa: Los Mitos de Cthulhu (Adaptación de Breccia y Buscaglia).
Recuerden, recuerden el 5 de noviembre. Conspiración, pólvora y traición. No veo la demora y siempre es la hora para evocarla sin dilación. Esta frase aún resuena 20 años después, pues para muchos sirvió para descubrir una historia contada por Alan Moore y David Lloyd casi otros 20 antes en las viñetas de un cómic que marcó otros muchos. Por ello, nosotros recordamos al hombre, al símbolo, a V. Monográfico donde en un primer bloque conoceremos a sus autores originales, el contexto y la obra literaria. Para luego, meternos de lleno con la película de James McTiege y los/las hermanos/as Wachowski con unos geniales Hugo Weaving y Natalie Portman. Bajo máscaras de Guy Fawkes y proclamando su libertad ante el Parlamento, se manifiestan por aquí Ale Oñate, Carlos Rull, Juandi y Pepe Soto. Les controla con La Boca y El Oído, Salva Vargas.

In this very special episode we celebrate a unique 40th anniversary by examining yet another Zack Snyder film the 2009 adaptation of Alan Moore's historically “unfilmable” comic serial Watchmen.
Welcome to Director Watch! On this AwardsWatch podcast, co-hosts Ryan McQuade and Jay Ledbetter attempt to breakdown, analyze, and ultimately, get inside the mind of some of cinema's greatest auteurs. In doing so, they will look at their filmographies, explore what drives them artistically and what makes their decision making process so fascinating. Add in a few silly tangents and a fun game at the end of the episode and you've got yourself a podcast we truly hope you love. On episode 124 of the Director Watch Podcast, the boys are joined by AwardsWatch contributor Josh Parham to discuss the next film in their Hughes Brothers series, From Hell (2001). After making two independent films that feel very much like the Hughes Brothers announcing their style and cinema language to the world, they took a detour to making a studio film, one that had been in development for some time. Based on the beloved Alan Moore graphic novel, From Hell centers around a renowned detective who is hunting down Jack the Ripper and using his helpful powers of deduction to save the girls being harmed by this mad man before it's too late, while also discovering the truth around who the Ripper is. Convoluted and silly, From Hell is a piece of early 2000s nostalgia for millennial audiences that works more as a fun, disposable period thriller than the next film within the Hughes Brothers' filmography, as it seems that they were directors for hire and doesn't have much of their voice found within their first two films. Ryan, Jay, and Josh talk about their thoughts on the film, how it fits in the Hughes Brothers filmography, the careers of Johnny Deep and Heather Graham, Josh's connection to the history of Jack the Ripper, how much a nice guy Alan Moore seems (sarcasm), and what the hell is going on with the James Bond franchise and plenty of more tangents. You can listen to the Director Watch Podcast wherever you stream podcasts, from iTunes, iHeartRadio, Soundcloud, Stitcher, Spotify, Audible, Amazon Music, YouTube and more. This podcast runs 2h19m. The guys will be back next week to conclude their series on the films of the Hughes Brothers with a review of their last film, The Book of Eli. You can rent it via iTunes and Amazon Prime rental in preparation for the next episode of Director Watch. Till then, let's get into it.

Memory. Ghost. Mystery. Joke. History. Blood. Rose. "Well, I'm sure I wouldn't know anything about what the Polish people think!"
Before Watchmen shocked readers with the idea of a staged alien invasion meant to unite humanity, The Outer Limits had already explored that same chilling premise more than two decades earlier. “The Architects of Fear,” one of the series' most haunting episodes, aired in 1963 at the height of Cold War anxiety. In it, a group of idealistic scientists concoct a desperate plan to save the world from nuclear annihilation by creating a common enemy—an extraterrestrial threat—through grotesque transformation and deception.The story's moral gravity and tragic human core—anchored by Robert Culp's anguished performance—make it an emotional blueprint for Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons' Watchmen. Where Moore's Adrian Veidt executes his plan with cold perfection, The Outer Limits delivers the same concept as human tragedy rather than triumph. It's a tale not about success, but about sacrifice and futility—a broadcast parable warning that even the noblest lies can't save us from ourselves.
The SuperHero Homies are diving deep into DC's Doomsday Clock, the ambitious pseudo-sequel to Watchmen written by Geoff Johns and illustrated by Gary Frank. This 12-issue DC Comics epic brings together two of the most iconic worlds in comic history — Watchmen and the DC Universe — as Superman and Doctor Manhattan finally collide in one of the most fascinating superhero stories ever told. In this spoiler-filled Doomsday Clock review, we break down the major events, character arcs, and themes of this story. We discuss how the book pays homage to Alan Moore's Watchmen while carving out its own identity within the modern DC mythos. We also analyze the deeper meaning behind the Superman and Dr. Manhattan dynamic, the artwork's incredible attention to detail, and why this story feels like a fitting continuation to one of the most legendary comics ever made. Before diving into the review, we kick things off with a cold open covering the potential WB Discovery buyout, what it could mean for James Gunn's DCU, and the new Xbox console announcement (and Game Pass controversy).

Vuelven los versus a las tortas y no es lo único que vuelve. Para el programa de hoy dos tebeos con muchos puntos en común, entre otros, ser obra de autorazos con mayúsculas en las mayúsculas y, sin embargo, ser también de las menos comentadas. Dos obras protagonizadas por mujeres fuertes ante el mundo hostil de un futuro que parecía más de ciencia ficción en el momento en que salieron los tebeos. En una esquina, Give Me Liberty, de Frank Miller y Dave Gibbons, publicada por primera vez por Dark Horse en 1990. En la esquina contraria, La Balada de Halo Jones, de Alan Moore y Ian Gibson, que comenzó a publicarse serializada en 2000 AD en 1984. Y ya sabéis, no intentéis esto en casa. Round one. Fight! La noche es caliente como el infierno. Todo se te pega. Una asquerosa habitación de un asqueroso barrio de una asquerosa ciudad. El aparato de aire acondicionado es un pedazo de chatarra que no podría enfriar ni una bebida aunque la metieras dentro. Parece el sitio perfecto para escuchar el podcast 390 de ELHDLT Selección musical: 🎶Give Me Liberty Or Give Me Death, de Gianluca Zanna 🎶 Hanging Out With Halo Jones, de Transvision Vamp

Frank Miller is regarded as one of the most influential and awarded creators. He began his career in comics in the late 1970s, first gaining notoriety as the artist, and later writer, of Daredevil for Marvel Comics. Next, came the science-fiction samurai drama Ronin, followed by the groundbreaking Batman: The Dark Knight Returns and Batman: Year One with artist David Mazzuchelli. Following these seminal works, Miller fulfilled a lifelong dream by doing an all-out crime series, Sin City, which spawned two blockbuster films that he co-directed with Robert Rodriguez. Miller's multi-award-winning graphic novel 300 was also adapted into a highly successful film by Zack Snyder. His upcoming memoir, Push the Wall: My Life, Writing, Drawing, and the Art of Storytelling, is now available for pre-order.This episode is brought to you by: Eight Sleep Pod Cover 5 sleeping solution for dynamic cooling and heating: EightSleep.com/Tim (use code TIM to get $350 off your very own Pod 5 Ultra.)Shopify global commerce platform, providing tools to start, grow, market, and manage a retail business: https://shopify.com/tim (one-dollar-per-month trial period)AG1 all-in-one nutritional supplement: DrinkAG1.com/Tim (1-year supply of Vitamin D (and 5 free AG1 travel packs) with your first subscription purchase.)Timestamps:[00:00:00] Start.[00:02:14] Aristotle's definition of happiness: Devotion to excellence.[00:03:02] Tools of the trade: Blackwing pencils, India ink, liquid frisket.[00:04:45] Sin City‘s physical creation at “twice up” size.[00:08:06] The toothbrush spatter technique.[00:09:24] Channeling impatience, anger, and violence into dramatic creative work.[00:10:33] What Jack Kirby knew about making comics competitive with cinema's spectacle.[00:11:56] Will Eisner and The Spirit‘s influence on the US market where writer-artist duality is rare.[00:13:33] How Jack Kirby blasted apart the panel grid (and a young Frank's mind).[00:15:49] Push the wall and defy the code.[00:19:54] The ruthless mentorship of Neal Adams.[00:24:57] The genesis of the Elektra amd Daredevil “soap opera.”[00:27:56] Story structure: Start late, end early.[00:29:10] Trusting the muse over rigid methodology.[00:31:15] European invasion: Moebius and Forbidden Planet.[00:32:52] Japanese influence: Lone Wolf and Cub‘s impact.[00:34:30] Cultural differences in depicting violence and motion.[00:36:38] Ronin: Shameless imitation and rebirth.[00:37:28] How does Frank know if something is working (or not working)?[00:39:27] The critical reception of Ronin as a “broken nose.”[00:42:37] The ruthless structure of The Dark Knight Returns.[00:43:40] Mutual elevation with “smartest fan” Alan Moore.[00:48:26] Robert Rodriguez: Angel of goodwill and generosity.[00:49:28] Sin City film: Co-directing and the Director's Guild sacrifice.[00:50:31] Working as a “two-headed beast” with Rodriguez.[00:55:27] Favorite films.[00:58:19] Books and ancient history inspiring 300.[00:59:00] Hollywood lessons: The importance of working with the right people.[01:01:13] The partnership and guidance of Silenn Thomas.[01:02:01] The clarity and creative rejuvenation of getting sober from alcohol.[01:04:48] Advice for aspiring comic artists: Story, story, story.[01:06:20] Learning to draw: Bridgman and Loomis books.[01:08:07] Perspective as a mathematical trick and lie.[01:11:00] Dick Giordano's advice: Lay in blacks first.[01:13:52] Sin City workflow innovation: Batch processing stages.[01:15:48] Dark Horse Comics and creative freedom.[01:17:29] Economy of line work and elegant minimalism.[01:20:46] On collaborating with Bill Sienkiewicz on Elektra.[01:25:20] Billboard wisdom: “Ask every question,” and “Why?”[01:27:08] Challenging pathological conformity.[01:27:39] Parting thoughts and where to find Frank's work.*For show notes and past guests on The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast.For deals from sponsors of The Tim Ferriss Show, please visit tim.blog/podcast-sponsorsSign up for Tim's email newsletter (5-Bullet Friday) at tim.blog/friday.For transcripts of episodes, go to tim.blog/transcripts.Discover Tim's books: tim.blog/books.Follow Tim:Twitter: twitter.com/tferriss Instagram: instagram.com/timferrissYouTube: youtube.com/timferrissFacebook: facebook.com/timferriss LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/timferrissSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

¡Vótame en los Premios iVoox 2025! “Bajo esta máscara hay más que carne y hueso. Hay una idea. Y las ideas son a prueba de balas.” En este episodio encendemos la mecha de una de las películas más incendiarias del siglo XXI. V de Vendetta (2005) no solo redefinió el cine político de los 2000, sino que se convirtió en un símbolo de resistencia, identidad y revolución. Hablamos de su origen en el cómic de Alan Moore, de la visión de las Wachowski, de una Natalie Portman que se rapó la cabeza frente a la cámara, y de cómo una máscara de Guy Fawkes terminó siendo el rostro del inconformismo moderno. Una historia sobre el poder, el miedo y la libertad. Y sobre cómo una película puede despertar algo que ya estaba dentro de todos nosotros.

[rating: 2.5/5] DISCUSSION BATMAN AND ETRIGAN Etrigan first appeared in The Demon #1 (September 1972) and was created by Jack Kirby. He created him at the behest of DC, who saw it as likely to be more commercially successful than the Fourth World and cancelled New Gods and Forever People to facilitate work on the new title. According to Evanier, Kirby had no interest in horror comics, but created Mark Etrigan in response to DC's demand for a horror character. Kirby was annoyed that Etrigan's popularity forced him to abandon the Fourth World titles before he was done with them. Etrigan returned for a four-issue miniseries in 1987, written and illustrated by Matt Wagner. Alan Grant followed this with an Etrigan feature in Action Comics Weekly #636-641 and a second ongoing title in 1990. The 1990 series lasted 58 issues, two Annuals and one #0 issue. Garth Ennis took over the title beginning with issue #40. Ennis' run included the first appearance of his character Hitman. This series was followed by a miniseries, Driven Out. Following this, John Byrne's Blood of the Demon lasted 17 issues, and ignored much of the continuity that took place after Kirby's initial run. While his first monthly comic book series was short-lived, and his second was canceled after five years, Etrigan remains a popular supporting character with occasional additional miniseries. Series in which Etrigan has appeared include Alan Moore's Swamp Thing, Neil Gaiman's The Sandman, Kevin Smith's Green Arrow and Batman: The Widening Gyre, Garth Ennis's Hitman, and Cosmic Odyssey by Jim Starlin and Mike Mignola.

PROVIDENCE, escrito por Alan Moore y dibujado por Jacen Burrows, podría ser la última gran obra maestra que nos legue el famoso guionista de Watchmen y V de Vendetta. Y aunque aún le queda mecha para escribir más, dudosamente podrá superar el nivel de Providence. Desafortunadamente, no es un cómic tan famoso como sus obras de los años 80, y el cómic es cafetero a más no poder. Precedido por The Courtyard y Neonomicon, de los que también hablaremos como capítulos previos honoríficos, Providence explora el universo de los mitos primigenios del autor H.P. Lovecraft como nunca se había hecho con semejante profundidad, expandiendo su mitología sin repetir fórmulas, aportando lore e ideas absolutamente impensables. La mezcla de Alan Moore y H.P. Lovecraft debería seducir a cualquiera, así que esperamos que este podcast, tan exhaustivo, profundo y cafetero como el propio guión de Alan Moore, tendría que seducir de igual modo. Sólo tu cordura está en juego. Escucha el episodio completo en la app de iVoox, o descubre todo el catálogo de iVoox Originals
We're finally at the end of Alan Moore's Swamp Thing! When we last left him, he was stuck in space on an alien planet, making the best of his situation with whatever plants he could find.

Next Time: We continue spooky season with "Beneath the Trees Where Nobody Sees" by Patrick Horvath! Plus we start our next long-read with "The Ultimates #1"
Alan Moore and Michael Kitces share nine years of XYPN benchmarking insights live from XYPN LIVE 2025. From year-one challenges to fee strategies, hiring, and the value of CFP® certification, this episode gives a candid, data-driven look at what works (and what doesn't) when growing a fee-only firm.
From Margaret Atwood to Alan Moore, from 1984 to Andor, science fiction has gamed out totalitarian futures better than most political analysts. But does it have the answers to stopping the rise of fascism? Writer, critic and host of a fascinating online science fiction community Damien Walter discusses the lessons of future oligarchs, space tyrants and cosmic populism with Andrew Harrison. Which sci-fi dictator does Donald Trump most resemble? Are V For Vendetta and Judge Dredd warnings or instruction manuals? And if Andor is Marxist-Leninist, is the Star Wars story of restoring a genetic elite of magic knights actually fascist? • Watch Damien's brilliant explorations of science fiction on YouTube and hear his Science Fiction podcast. • Support us on Patreon for early episodes and more. • Head to nakedwines.co.uk/thebunker to get 6 top-rated wines from our sponsor Naked Wines for £39.99, delivery included. • We are sponsored by Indeed.

We loved Peter David's X-Factor so much last time, so we're going back in for more! Except this time we're taking a look at his 2005 reboot of the title, coming hot off the heels of House of M and Decimation. We've still got Multiple Man struggling with controlling his dupes, but now we've got depowered mutants and an inexplicably omnipotent little girl to deal with. Then we finish up our long read of Thunderbolts with #25, in which they take down 25 supervillains and we see who's behind the Crimson Cowl. Next Time: We finish up Alan Moore's Swamp Thing run with Volume 6 (Issues 57-64)!

Ravenous thirst and fear to drink, rabies flecks the mouths of all these scum. I stand in judgement, standing alone in the rain. Genuflecting only to those monied interests I long to embrace. "That's right. Human bean juice. Ha Ha."

Corría el año 1982 en las islas británicas cuando en aquella sucursal que Marvel había abierto por allí les dio por juntar a dos chavales, aún veinteañeros, de nombre ambos Alan, para hacer una serie de capítulos cortos de producción propia dentro de sus revistas de reediciones de tebeos Marvel en blanco y negro. Pese a que en su día sobreviviera comercialmente dando tumbos, una pura cabezonada del editor Paul Neary, la casualidad y unas pocas toneladas de talento (inexperto, pero talento) de sus autores generarían todo un universo, o más bien multiverso, que marcaría para siempre los tebeos de la casa de las ideas y las carreras de sus dos autores, de uno u otro modo. Este renovado Capitán Britania, tras la primera versión de los años 70, terminaría siendo tal vez mucho más influyente que conocido y nos deja además ver las bases de dos de los autores más grandes que jamás ha dado el mundo de las viñetas. La noche es caliente como el infierno. Todo se te pega. Una asquerosa habitación de un asqueroso barrio de una asquerosa ciudad. El aparato de aire acondicionado es un pedazo de chatarra que no podría enfriar ni una bebida aunque la metieras dentro.

Seth's life until now has been a product of a diabolical, evil Truman Show, his entire upbringing a façade orchestrated for malevolent purposes. After his beloved dies, he undergoes a demonic metamorphosis, which causes the world's fictitious walls to crumble. As he tries to piece a semblance of his life back together and move on, he meets friends who inspire, but even more harsh truths are revealed, perhaps too difficult to cope with. The very existence of life and reality is exposed as a machination of grotesque gods. And to defeat them, Seth will have to fill his emptiness, for which there's only two options…bring the world to ruin, or learn to transmute his pain into strength. Fans of "Jerusalem" by Alan Moore, “The Bell Jar” by Sylvia Plath, or “The Master and Margarita” by Mikhail Bulgakov will enjoy “The Monsters Among Us.”

With his highly anticipated debut graphic novel "More Weight: A Salem Story" releasing, Massachusetts-born author Ben Wickey joins us for an exclusive pre-launch interview about this Alan Moore-praised "appalling masterpiece." The Edward Gorey Award-winning artist's first solo work tells the harrowing tale of Giles Corey, the only person pressed to death under stones during the infamous 1692 Salem Witch Trials.What makes this upcoming graphic novel release extraordinary? Beyond Wickey's stunning and unmatched visual storytelling that brings historical horror to visceral life, he is a descendant of Salem Witch Trial victim Mary Easty, bringing deeply personal perspective to this decade-long project that Publishers Weekly compared to "From Hell." We explore the pre-release excitement, Wickey's meticulous research using historical documents, and his innovative dual-timeline narrative featuring Nathaniel Hawthorne interludes. Using the graphic novel format, Wickey cuts through pop culture mythology to restore the genuine horror and humanity of Salem's history.Discover how Corey transformed from testifying against his wife Martha to defiantly uttering his final words "more weight," and why this Salem witch hunt story will captivate readers everywhere.#SalemWitchTrials #BenWickey #MoreWeight #GraphicNovel #HistoricalHorrorBuy the Graphic Novel "More Weight" Read the Alan Moore World Blog: Ben Wickey An Extraordinary Enchanter More Weight Preview Page on TopShelfComix.com Sign the Petition: MA Witch Hunt Justice Projectwww.massachusettswitchtrials.orgThe Thing About Salem YouTubeThe Thing About Salem PatreonThe Thing About Witch Hunts YouTubeThe Thing About Witch Hunts
Robert Plant on his journey from Led Zeppelin to his latest album of folk songs. Creator of V for Vendetta and Watchmen, Alan Moore is probably the world's most acclaimed writer of comic books, a medium he now eschews. Moving into novels, he has explored his hometown Northampton in widely praised work like Jerusalem, but his latest - The Great When - is an otherworldly exploration of literary London, inspired by the psychogeography of Iain SInclair and horror writing of Arthur Machen. From Seurat to Van Gogh, we mark a new exhibition at the National Gallery with a dive into the entrancing light and pontillist glow of the neo-impressionists. Co-curator Julien Domercq and art expert Anthea Callen are on to discuss. With the National Short Story Awards approaching, we speak to shortlisted author Emily Abdeni-Holman about her entry, Yair.
This week on Bronze and Modern Gods we've got a stacked lineup!
As any long time listener knows, I've been looking for a Marine Biologist to talk to. Well, the sea was angry that day, my friends, because I found my white whale. Alan Moore is a marine biologist and the President and Director of two accredited Marine Biology programs in Western Florida. They specialize is sharks and rays. So, of course we talked about sharks and rays. We also talk about - queue heroic music - octopusses!. Also, whales, porpoises, dolphins, seals, and lots of other animals great and small. So, don't be an old man trying to return soup at a deli. Pull out that Teistelist. It's to time to enjoy a deep dive.Epilogue: This guest revealed to me some days after the recording that he was not a Marine BIologist. He assured me he had the other requisite certifications and did run the school. He asked me not to air the show as he felt he didn't do well. I listened back and thought he was fine. But I agreed not to air the show contingent upon us re-recording limited primarily to sharks, rays and the school AND he'd send over some actual marine biologists. Neither contingency happened. I thought nothing of it until I saw him seeking guest spots on podcasts again. Judge for yourself.

Agradece a este podcast tantas horas de entretenimiento y disfruta de episodios exclusivos como éste. ¡Apóyale en iVoox! Arrancamos con el primer programa de La Órbita de Endor, y no podemos hacerlo de mejor manera, nada menos que con el rey indiscutible del mundo del cómic: ALAN MOORE. En nuestra taberna debatiremos si hace bien el genial guionista en desvincularse de todas y cada una de las adaptaciones cinematográficas que se realizan sobre sus obras. Acompañando al director del programa, estará el grupo habitual de contertulios, Ana González, Jorge Saiz e Isabel Queipo. También echaremos un vistazo a La Caja Tonta, la sección donde hablaremos sobre destacables series de televisión. Hoy haremos un acercamiento a la nueva temporada de la serie FUTURAMA, aún inédita en nuestro país pero que ha sido emitida en gran parte en EEUU. Nuestro colaborador más polémico, El Cascarrabias, nos hablará sobre Gran Turismo 5. Eso sí, a su manera. Después escucharemos y comentaremos un ranking de las 10 escenas más memorables del Hollywood más friki de todos los tiempos. Todo ello con las músicas más evocadoras y el tono más desenfadado.

Agradece a este podcast tantas horas de entretenimiento y disfruta de episodios exclusivos como éste. ¡Apóyale en iVoox! El movimiento Anonymous está de actualidad, y lo estará en los próximos meses, su icono representativo es la máscara que ha inmortalizado la obra V DE VENDETTA. Hoy en La Órbita De Endor hablaremos de esa novela gráfica, maravillosamente escrita por el genio Alan Moore, y también de la película de mismo título, escrita y producida por los Hermanos Wachowsky. Analizaremos no solamente ambas versiones de la historia, sino sus implicaciones filosóficas e idealistas sin entrar en política, aunque seguramente nos salga mal. Para ello, contaremos con la presencia de los habituales colaboradores del programa: Raúl Martin y el Coronel Kurtz. Pero será necesario conocer primero al personaje que sirvió de inspiración al misterioso V, el infame para unos y heroico para otros Guy Fawkes, mártir del famoso evento conocido como El Motín de la Pólvora. En la voz del historiador Juan José Sánchez-Oro, aprenderemos nuevamente en este programa algo de Historia. ¿Qué ocurrió realmente aquel 5 de Noviembre de 1605? Lo sabremos, con todo lujo de detalles (y algunos muy escabrosos), el único programa friki donde uno aprende cosas de verdad útiles. Posteriormente habrá que informarse sobre qué es eso de Anonymous, la iniciativa que ha vuelto a poner de moda al revolucionario V. Si te has preguntado alguna vez cómo funciona este grupo, de la mano del estudioso de la conspiración Miguel Ángel Ruiz sabrás, no sólo todo lo necesario para conocer Anonymous, sino qué actitud debemos adoptar como ciudadanos ante semejante movimiento. Todo esto en un solo programa, dirigido como siempre por Antonio Runa. Súmate a la revolución; súmate a LODE.
